ladymarshall 61 Posted January 12, 2013 Does anybody ever feel as if their band is sticking them? Sometimes when I cough my band will hurt is this normal? I was banded 9/5/12. Also, sometimes it feel like it hurt or sticks me when I wear my jeans that most of the time are tighter on my stomach than my wrk pants. Sometimes it happen with my work pants also but only when maybe I've eaten a tad too much, I hardly ever overeat I've never had a Bp, thrown up or anything, by the grace of god I've had a great 4 mths of being banded.

FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted January 12, 2013 I could be wrong but I believe what you are feeling is your port not your band. The band is on the stomach which is above the waist and would be impossible to feel through your liver I would think Chck ith your dr just to be sure. 1 DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banderina 69 Posted January 14, 2013 It sounds like your port...mine only hurts when i exercise alot..mine is higher than waist line so i never really feel it unless i look for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CHEZNOEL 4,061 Posted January 14, 2013 If you were newly banded, the port stays sore for 6-8 weeks, but I would think that would be done by now. Did you bump your port? If is is under your waistband it may need to be relocated. Call the doctor is my net advice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks that is exactly when I feel it. When I wear my tight jeans. I wear them much more now since the weight is dropping. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
